Correspondence (al-mukatabat)

In the tradition's idiom, al-mukatabat is the exchange of letters and written messages between kings, sultans, caliphs, governors, envoys and correspondents — what is written, sent, read and answered. The museum opens this genre with the Qur'anic letter of Sulayman to Bilqis al-Naml 30، the Prophet's letters to the kings — Heraclius reading the Prophet's letter in Sahih al-Bukhari 7541 and the sealing and dispatch of letters to Chosroes، Caesar and the Negus in Sahih Muslim 5482 — and what the history and chancery books carry of the caliphs' correspondence; the [[/en/mukatabat/|Mukatabat Browser]] gathers it with every mention and letter in the Qur'an، the Sunnah، the seerah and every harvested book — and whatever is harvested later.
